Straight Edge

Straight edge was invented by a song from the band Minor Threat in the early 80's. It was all started by one line in a 45 second song, I've got the straight edge. It was invented in Washington DC and was brought up to Boston by a guy named Al Bareal he invented hardline. Straight edge has three simple rules no drinking, no drugs, and no smoking. Hardline is much like straight edge but has more rules than just no drinking, no smoking, and no drugs. No caffine, have to be a vegetarian or vegan, no sex unless it's procreation, no imported chocolate, no porn, no masterbating are some of the other rules. There are two types of straight edge lifestyles the positive an the militant. Boston is known for it's militant type edge, Boston Beatdown. Straight Edge is a lifestyle not a label. It is a new generation. Here is the real history and def of straight edge.
There is no example either your straight edge or not

double edge sword

"Double edge sword" is a silly overused proverb that makes little sense.
Everything is a double edge sword orig. double-edged sword. Nothing isn’t a double edged sword. Even a single-edged sword is a double-edged sword. Because you can cut something with it, but the other end is kind of flat and doesn’t really cut well. It’s kind of a double-edged sword.

straight edge

A movement started in the early 80's from the hardcore punk scene. Basically it means to be drug free.

One major note: you can't be edge if you have more than three bedrooms in your house.
1) "Dude, the school newspaper did an article about that straight edge kid. He's pretty cool."

"Yeah, but he's got more than three bedrooms in his house, so he's a FAKIE."

2) "Dude...that edge kid has four bedrooms in his house!"

"WHAT WOULD IAN MCKAYE SAY!!?!?!?!?"
